Crime writing just like in the good old days,</B><BR/><B>and perfect entertainment' </B><I>Guardian</I><BR/><BR/> _______________________<BR/><BR/> For Major Bricket, attending church in his village of Stunston Peveril in Suffolk is a good way to keep up with the village gossip. Having only recently retired from a career where he was privy to many international secrets, the Major likes to stay in the know.<BR/><BR/> Events take a turn one Sunday though when, after the morning service, Major Bricket notices the door to the bell tower open... and finds a body at the bottom of the stairs.<BR/><BR/> The dead man is dressed in a suit and dog collar. But who is he? And could someone in Stunston Peveril have killed him?<BR/><BR/> Perhaps predictably, most of the village residents seem more concerned with the Parish Council flower arranging rota than the mysterious corpse.<BR/><BR/> Major Bricket will have to rely on his long-nurtured detection skills, and his trusted friends Nga Luong and Rod, to solve the case.<BR/>  <BR/>
